Is this what having a shutdown corner feels like?

To say how lewis struggles in preseason, he has kept true to his word and turned his play up a couple knotches

He's having a great season for us

Im still not comfortable about greer though, he got beat badly by stevie johnson on a 60 yard TD pass that was only saved by a holding penalty

Twice in 2 weeks he's let the ball go over his head for a score

Stevie Johnson is no slouch. EVery corner will be burned a couple of times every season and I am fine with that. It can't look like Jason David out there thou.

There's getting burned, and then there is just flat out making an awful play.
This is the latter. Bad either way.

PS- didn't look like much of a hold either

Lewis brought that Steeler mentality to our defense, much like Harrolson brought some 49er to us...

Exactly what I was thinking when I saw Lewis play yesterday, Steelers secondary is known for very good man coverage and being an aggressive and solid tackler

Keenan definitely has those traits

Corey White should be starting over Greer. We should be starting to transition Greer off the team and into retirement.

I thought Keenan Lewis was stunning.

Did hate to see our guys trying to kill each other.

But Lewis has been a good pickup. I Joel that he & the whole D keep up the good work.

Lewis has definitely been a great addition to the secondary, but I do agree that McKenzie was pretty impressive when he was at the top of his game.

Greer still has some great instincts on the field and he probably helps the younger guys along with their game, and I think he's been a lot better in coverage this year as opposed to last year, so the decline is negligible IMO.

I was kind of chuckling after that collision. Did anyone else see Vacarro kind of roll over when his head was between Lewis' legs and get a face full of crotch? His eye widend up and he roll back over quick!

LMAO for that Kenny!
